Welcome
to the Center for Research in Wireless Communications at Clemson

The
Center for Research in Wireless Communications (CRWC) at Clemson University
offers a cross-disciplinary program of research and education targeted
at the emerging needs for the cellular and wireless communications
industry. In a world of increasing mobility, there is a growing need
for people to communicate with each other and have timely access
to information regardless of the location of the individuals or the
information. A phone call placed from a commuter train may close
a business deal, remote access to medical records by a paramedic
may save a life, or a request for reconnaissance updates by a soldier
with a handheld device may affect the outcome of a battle. Each of
these instances of mobile communications poses an engineering challenge
that can be met only with an efficient, reliable, wireless communication
network. The demand for wireless communication systems of increasing
sophistication and ubiquity has led to the need for a better understanding
of fundamental issues in communication theory and electromagnetics
and their implications for the design of highly-capable wireless
systems.
